Khan should fight brook instead of mayweatehr because there is a really high chance Khan can actually get the fight vs Brook and win. If he waits till may for Mayweather again there is a chance another fighter will have some spectacular performance and Mayweather will decide to fight him instead. Khan needs to stop wasting his prime years (27). If mayweather fight is guaranteed go ahead with that fight but if its a 50/50 chance then Brook should be the obvious choice. It will gain him huge respect from the boxing community.
Maidana would have had the WBA Belt. LOL@ the idea that Floyd picks opponents based on belts. Maidana's win over Broner gave Floyd the perfect excuse to pick another slow Hispanic brawler to fleece people on Mexican holidays.
im not saying he fights people because of belts. im saying khan winning a title would have made the fight more desirable from a fan standpoint. and he would have fought khan because he was desperate for an opponent who he could sell some ppv's with. khan coming off of beating Molina and diaz wasn't gonna be enough too excite anybody too buy a mayweather vs khan fight.
fast forward a year later and people still aren't excited about a mayweather/khan fight. and that's only because khan hasn't beaten anybody of note in over 2 years. if khan wants the fight he should be trying too make a statement by beating his countrymen in a mega uk fight. with a win over brook. Floyd would have nowhere too go he would be forced too fight khan or pacquiao.
don't forget khan was suppose too be next for Floyd after the ortiz fight. but he lost too Peterson. so Floyd fought cotto instead. then khan lost too danny after that.

he would have chose khan because khan would have had the ibf title. he would have fought khan in may and saved maidana for September. since khan cant fight in September due too Ramadan. it would have gave Floyd the chance too win 3 out of 4 belts at 147.
we want Floyd vs manny. khan vs brook. winners can fight each other

I'm not sure if Khan beats Alexander honestly.
I find it interesting. Khan's chin isn't a massive factor in this one, as Alexander doesn't hit that hard
Pretty rare to see a top-level fight where his chin doesn't play a big role. I see it as the reason for the intrigue of a Mayweather fight
Why would Mayweather have chosen him over Maidana?
Maidana would have still beaten Broner who the media were hyping as the next Mayweather and plus he's a slow brawler.
Mayweather would have picked Maidana regardless.

Brook would have KO'd Khan last year, he would KO him this year and if it takes until next year, he'll KO him then.
That fight won't happen until Khan loses again and has no other big option.
Considering Khan's latest level of opposition he should be careful of what he wishes for.
Both Brook and Floyd would beat him.
I think he can get past Alexander, but there are 5 or more WW's that can whup King Khan.
1) Manny
2) Floyd
3) Thurman
4) Brook
5) Bradley
Khan is on par with WW's like Porter and Guerrero.
mind mentioning Thurman or Brooks level of opposition?

It's certainly not guaranteed, Alexander is a good fighter his defeats come from shorter fighters using a swarming/spoiling/brawling inside style which Khan doesn't really have. Although Kotelnik did box him very well too in a style different to that and almost beat him.
It's a 60-40 fight in my eyes, I give Khan the slight edge.
Damn i know Khan feels like ****......when he has been waiting to be "chosen" and now everybody is pressuring Floyd to fight Manny instead.....lmao...he should have been fought Devin then he woulda gat the fight over Maidana this year
